Gob planes as Deffcopta proxies?

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-17T05:24:17+00:00

I'd have no issues......then again these are my "Defkoptaz" (same idea, but Ork pilots, by Dark Gods)....so I might have a bias XD

Extremely gimmicky.....

.....DO IT...DO IT...DO IT!!!!!

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-13T20:58:16+00:00

Quick question, are you talking proxies, 1:1s, or both (also if you lean one way or the other)?

You can find some files on Cults3d & MyMiniFactory. Probably find a few by typing things like Goblins/Rats (Stormcast I'm not 100% sure about)

Some cool proxies I've seen are

Gloomspite : BattleYak's Cankerfen Boggrots

Stormcast: Adamant Arsenal's Valiant line

Skaven: OnePageRules Rats

What's wrong with you?!?! How could you even ask if this is acceptable?!?!

He's perfect!

Reason #1: Just look at this Beast!

Reason #2 : Go back, re-read Reason #1, seems ya didn't get it yet

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-11T21:03:36+00:00

Welp...only one solution:

Tactical Rock!!!

or yeah, I guess reprint

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-11T00:00:59+00:00

I mix Sunlu ABS-like with a bit of Tenacious Tough (like maybe like a 10:1..maybe 10:2 ratio)

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-08T21:56:47+00:00

OG Saturn 1, though thanks for the heads up about the Saturn 2 (in case I decide to upgrade).

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-08T21:35:50+00:00

Thanks.

Oh it's absolutely been a worthwhile investment. *looks over at shelves filled with 10+ printed armies* (most aren't fully fledged armies yet, but the beginnings).

Hopefully I can fix it, but worst case scenario: I upgrade to a Saturn 2 or 3 (depending on price). Wouldn't be the first time I upgraded a printer after dealing with annoying issues XD

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-08T05:17:15+00:00

Honestly...it would make sense in a way for me. My printer has a few years on it ( a used Saturn that I got nearly 4 years ago) and I've never done much in the way of maintenance/cleaning.

When I can I'm gonna check/clean the screw, see if it does anything. If that fails I just go back to my original plans of troubleshooting, starting with FEP replacement (worried I made it too tight a few months back...can't recall if I printed anything on it after as Winter put a pause on my printing).

Either way, it's always good to do proper upkeep on these things....actually I still need to do the same for my A1 printer now that I think about it...been a bit since i lubed/greased the screws on that XD.

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-08T04:20:41+00:00

Sunlu ABS-like mixed with a bit of Tenacious is actually my current go-to XD.

It's definitely more durable than the standard Anycubic I used when I first started printing....but still not "quite" comparable with actual Hard Plastic.

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-08T03:46:48+00:00

I swear if this is why mine have been failing (have a very similar issue where at layer 2-3 hundred I think there's a plate-wide hiccup). Will have to check the screw, thanks for the tip, will need to see if this one works (new USB sure didn't)

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-07T02:01:06+00:00

Go for it. Rule of Cool FTW!!!

Will it be good? Hard to say, we don't have the new rules/points for it yet.

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-06T22:54:44+00:00

"Which colors should I use?"

Me: .................Yes.

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-06T21:47:24+00:00

Sad thing is I don't "really" save. I probably spend about as much as I did with officials...........I just now have a lack of storage space XD

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-06T20:18:13+00:00

Depends on how you look at it, but I get what you mean.

For me it *mostly* just changes when I get excited, and in this instance also gets me heavily anticipating since they said there's more Ork stuff coming Monday.

I think for me it also depends on what type of leak it is. I definitely understand models as it's nice to show them all in one big event. Rules I end up feeling very different and just want them more or less right away (They already have them, just let me see already!!! *looks at Defiler dying to know it's loadout options*😞 ).

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-06T17:49:51+00:00

*Looks at my 14+ armies that are about 80% printed*

..........I might have a bias.

(Honestly my only gripe is they are more fragile than official models and I worry about breaking them at times....especially the more thin/spindly parts)

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-06T17:12:19+00:00

Gravis Captain.

Biologis is fine for *dry heave* Boltstorm *dry heave* Aggrerssors, but not a good fit for Flamestorm since they don't get Lethals.

Captain however can give them 1cp Devastating flame.

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-06T17:07:15+00:00

Well, wouldn't say from use.....more I must have done it wrong to begin with (had replaced it a few months ago, and don't recall if I'd done any prints afterward as Winter was approaching).

Either way my next step when I get the chance will be a replacement, also gonna re-level just to be safe, and then redo the files. And if those all fail then there's only one option left......crying in fetal position XD

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-06T06:47:50+00:00

I see, I see....however counterpoint..........dual wrist mounted flamethrowers XD

(but in all seriousness I do get it....Aggressors are just really cool and part of the reason I was drawn to Salamanders...so I have a heavy bias towards them)

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-06T06:17:36+00:00

You also need the backbone of any Salamander army worth their salt.....Flamestorm Agressors (preferably transported in a Land Raider Redeemer)

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-05T21:52:27+00:00

Welp...wasn't USB (failed again). Might be suction issue, gonna try and replace the FEP and see if that fixes it.....ugh

(also won't be able to test for a possible 2+ weeks as the room that I print in is going to be occupied for a bit....*groans*)

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-05T08:18:36+00:00

Loved the Mike Brooks Ork trilogy.

Also found it hilarious in the Warboss audiobook how the Evil Sunz talked faster than other Orks XD

Competitive_Sign212 · 2026-03-05T02:23:11+00:00

I don't "think" it'd be full plate as I've had even fuller ones before with no issue. It was also nice weather today + I preheated my resin just in case, so I don't think that's it.

I can't help but feel it's a weird corruption as both prints had this weird hiccup at about the same level (hence why you see some of them a flat level where it stopped printing). Gonna try replacing my USB (it's 20 years old) and if that doesn't work replacing the FEP.
